Editors
Jspreadsheet editors will enhance the user experience and transform any application into a powerful data management tool. There are several native editors and the developer can create or integrate plugins to create new custom data editors. The current native editors are:text, numeric, hidden, dropdown, checkbox, radio, calendar, image, color, email, url, progressbar, rating, autonumber, HTML, percent and notes.
The source code for all editors is available in the GitHub for reference.
Custom editor
A custom editor requires the implementation of five different methods, as described in the table below:| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| createCell | When a new cell is created.createCell(cell: Object, value: Any, x: Number, y: Number, instance: Object, options: Object) : void |
| updateCell | When the cell value changes.updateCell(cell: Object, value: Any, x: Number, y: Number, instance: Object, options: Object) : void |
| openEditor | When the user starts editing a cell.openEditor(cell: Object, value: Any, x: Number, y: Number, instance: Object, options: Object) : void |
| closeEditor | When the user finalizes the edit of a cell.closeEditor(cell: Object, confirmChanges: Boolean, x: Number, y: Number, instance: Object, options: Object) : void |
| destroyCell | When a cell is destroyed.destroyCell(cell: Object, x: Number, y: Number, instance: Object) : void |
| updateProperty | Apply updates when the properties of a cell or column is changed.updateProperty(x: Number, y: Number, instance: Object, options: Object) : void |
| get | Transform the raw data into processed data. It will show text instead of an id in the type dropdown, for example.get(options: Object, value: Any) : processedValue |
Custom editor
The following example implements a simple custom data editor.
var percent = function() {
var methods = {};
methods.updateCell = function(cell, value, x, y, instance) {
value = Number(value) || 0;
if (cell) {
cell.innerText = value + '%';
}
return value / 100;
}
methods.createCell = methods.updateCell;
methods.openEditor = function(cell, value, x, y, instance) {
instance.parent.input.onblur = function() {
instance.closeEditor(cell, true);
}
if (value) {
instance.parent.input.innerText = (Number(value)) * 100;
}
jSuites.focus(instance.parent.input);
}
methods.closeEditor = function(cell, save, x, y, instance) {
if (save) {
var value = Number(instance.parent.input.innerText);
} else {
var value = '';
}
return value;
}
methods.get = function(options, val) {
return (val * 100) + '%';
}
return methods;
}();
More source code examples can be found at https://github.com/jspreadsheet/editorsUsing a custom editor
Considering the percent editor above, thecolumn.type defines a native or custom editor, as follows:
var data = [
['PHP', '1'],
['Javascript', '0.4'],
];
jspreadsheet(document.getElementById('spreadsheet'), {
data: data,
columns: [
{
type: 'text',
title: 'Course Title',
width: '300px'
},
{
type: percent,
title: 'Percent',
width: '200px'
},
]
});
Editors on the cell level Pro
Using the Pro distribution, it is possible to overwrite the column configuration at a cell level using the propertycells as shown below:
